Season more than feels right
Egg whites are bland on their own. Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are doing real work here, so be generous.
💡Under-seasoning is why egg white omelettes have a reputation for tasting of nothing.
Cook the vegetables first
Wilt the spinach and soften the tomatoes in the oil for 2 minutes, then set aside. Raw vegetables release water into the whites.
Whisk until frothy
Whisk the whites hard for 30 seconds until light and foamy. The air makes for a more tender omelette.
Low heat only
Pour into the pan over low heat and cook slowly, drawing the set edges in and tilting to let liquid run underneath.
💡High heat turns whites rubbery almost instantly. Low and patient.
Fill and fold
When the top is just set, add the vegetables and feta to one half, fold over, and slide out. Top with chives.

📝 Tips, swaps, and make-ahead notes
Whites set at a lower temperature than yolks, which is exactly why the heat has to stay low. Adding one whole egg to the whites improves flavour and texture considerably if you are willing.
- •Dairy-free: Skip the feta and add avocado after folding.
- •Meal prep: Bake the same mixture in muffin tins for 20 minutes at 350°F.
- •Boost: A tablespoon of cottage cheese whisked into the whites adds creaminess.
